    Hey Donald... Sorry for the miscommunication about your being an arson investigator... I read your profile wrong... Anyway...hope the holidays were good to you and yours... Our dept was extremely busy with back to back snowstorms and holiday shoppers slipping and falling as well as people who were playing bumper carrs with their personal vehicles... Finally....time to get back to a routine... :-) Take care and stay safe hon....
